Your Desires

Verse of the day:Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4
I'm so happy!! This opportunity I got a couple days ago - I've decided I'm going to say yes to it. It was a big decision, and I prayed constantly, but I knew it was a clincher when I stumbled on the above verse, as well as this quote:

Love God, and do what you like. - St Augustine

I know I've always wanted to do this. I know God has put this dream inside me for a reason. And his timing is perfect. I've also felt God's pressing to look for an opportunity like this recently, like he was telling me that now's the right time. And if it's not what God wants, he will find a way to stop it from happening or steer me in a different direction.

But God wants us to be happy. But if we are truly delighting in the Lord, our hearts will be tuned to him so much that our desires will be his desires. So he is happy for you to do what you want - because he wants that too.

About me

Hi! I'm Jo. I love anything vintage, reading, writing and people, especially children. And baking. Besides all that, no matter what I'm doing, I seem to always have a DVD on - movies or TV shows, I love 'em. Just not much on live TV. My favorite show of all time is Gilmore Girls and my fave movies are The Sound Of Music, Titanic, The Nativity Story, and The Help. All long movies set in different eras. Coincidence? I think not. As for music, I love Johnny Cash, Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift and my favorite author is Karen Kingsbury. One day I hope to live in the US and be an author and/or a social worker.
